NEW DRESS MATERIALS.

Scotch Ginghams, Satteens, Lawns, Mus
 Iins, Tennis Cloth and Silks
 The cotton dresses being prepared ia advance of the season for summer wear are mostly Scotch ginghams, satteenS, lawns and muslins trimmed with em- broidery. The striped ginghams are in great favor, primrose and heliotrope stripes alternating, or else white and lavender stripes; also two shades of blue or pink with brown, or lavender, white and brown, in fact, any combina- ton in stripes can be had, but lavender is one of the predominating ones. Fret ty white ginghams with bars or stripes of color wide apart are shown; a very stylish pattern in white with brown bars. open-striped Hamburg is in stock.
 Velvet is used for their trimming, forming round shawl collars, and also deep close-fitting cuffs. Plaid and striped satteens are used for the skirt and drapery, while the basque is ot plain satteen. This is pretty in helio- trope grounds with pompadour de- signs, or in pale gray, or China blue, with flower designs for the skirt and a plain blue or gray basque. Dark blue and brown remain favorite colOrs in these dressy cottons. A very popular satteen is pretty shade of blue, neither dark nor very light, but a very hand some shade of blue with rose pink rings all over it. The satteens are mostly dark ground work, with light designs whatever the pattern-leaves, bunch of roses, buds, carnations, etc. If the ground work is dark the pattern is light, either in two shades or more.
 Tennis cloth is a new Scotch mate- rial of fine wool, with enough cotton added to keep it from shrinking, yet it is soft, pliant, exceedingly light, and comes in all the pretty stripes and new colors of the Scotch ginghams.
 Printed challi dresses of fine wool are to be worn this spring and summer. The cream grounds with gay figures are made with velvet collars, revers and a border of the velvet on the lower skirt just showing under the long over skirt. The newest velvets come in plaids or stripes; the plaids are Scotch plaids and consequently have many colors composing them, all harmoniz- ing nicely. Gray will be very fashion, able the coming season, as all the new goods, even calicoes, come in gray and drab. White dresses will be worn; they are made of nainsook, Victoria lawn, pique, nuns vailng, canvas cloth and bOurette wool.
 Summer silks are the Indian silks in colored figures on pale grounds or on white, or else they are in solid colors, such as porcelain blue, primrose pink, or scarlet, with velvet of a darker shade or in contrast for trimming | Detroit Free Press.

A PROFITABLE CROP.
How to Make Horse Radish Culture Re

How to Make Horse -Radish Culture Rea-
 sonably Successful.
 In order to obtain satisfactory crop of horse-radish, it is absolutely neces- sary that it should be grown Tn very deep loamy soil and one that has been deeply and thoroughly cultivated for previous crop. This soil should be giv- en liberal dressing of well-decayed manure, and it should be as deeply and thoroughly incorporated with the soil as possible by means of first the blow, and then harrow so as to level it of as nicely as possible; it should then be marked off into rows about two feet apart. In these rows the sets arc to be planted some sixteen inches apart. which should be done as early as the ground can be properly prepared in the spring. The planting is performed by making a hole from five to seven inches in depth, with long stick or crowbar; into this hole the set is dropped in such manner that the top is about two inches under the surface, at the same time pressing in enough earth to fill up the hole. As soon as the crop is up so that the rows can be distinguished a light hoeing should be given, after which keep tie crop clean and free from weeds until the middle of November, when the crop can be taken up and stored for winter use. After the crop is dug all of the small roots should be broken off and reserved for another seasons planting. The large or main roots should be packed in boxes, filled with sand and stored in cool cellar.
 If the ground has been properly pre- pared the main root should be eight or ten inches in length and weigh about half pound.
 The rootIets should be cut into pieces, or sets, about four or five inches in length, the top end being square and the bo ttom end slanting so that there will be no danger of setting the root upside down in planting. They should be buried in the ground out-of-doors until wanted for planting in the spring,
 I notice that some persons always in- sist on planting the crowns or tops of ] the main roots instead of the rootlets or sets.
 I believe this all wrong ana would not advise any one to do this; it not only destroys the most valuable part of the root, but the crowns produce a mass of rootlets only, and those are only fit to use as sets for another year $ planting.
 The entire crop should be dug out il, the fall and on no account should it be left for another season; if thIs is done the main root will become partially hollow and assume such a woody text ure as to render it unfit for use.-ChGS. E. ParneH, irs Our Country Home.

Marked with Characters Resembling Those
 Upon Oriental Wares.
 Among the largest and most beau tIful eggs in the world are those of the great aux of the polar regions. These eggs are about five inches long and three in breadth, and very curiously marked. Upon a silvery tinted ground are characters resembling those upon Oriental wares. Outlined in green, purple, blue and brown are these quaint traceries, with occasional interrupting pa ches in which various shades are blended. Sometimes one finds black lines irregularly crossing each other Should an egg of yellowish tint come to the hunters hand, it may be called 'red-letter day'' in his calendar, since such are esteemed of royal lineage" in auckland regions -as rare as gold itself Upon this faint amber-tinted ground, the wonder ful hieroglyphics stand out in strange !y beautiful relief. Forty years ago only about thirty auks and forty eggs were recorded belonging to public and private collections. At one time fifty dollars were paid for two auks and two rggs; a little later, half that sum for one eggs; and not very long since we read that five hundred dollars were given for one egg. These eggs arc found only in dizzy heights among the cliffs and crags of the Arctic seas, and are only obtained with great peril Baptist Weekly

Clever roll.rakInr Device.

An automatic collection or toll-taking device, to be attached to telephones at public or pay stations, has been invented.
 The mechanism in the telephone-box is so arranged that the telephone will not oper- ate until a coin of certain size and weight, dropped into a slit in the front
 acts upon a switch-lever, thereby making electrical connection between tbe trans hitter and the line wire. The act of hang ing the receiving-telephone, after use, in the place provided for it, drops the coin into a till and releases the switch-lever, thereby breaking the electrical connection and "setting the trap" for the next user.

FUT IHb HI5I lIIIIJi H0I 11I -OOI u VI . And thou art terriblel

For the first time, her frst-born's breath,
 And thou art terriblel
 The untimely death which annually carries off thousands of human beings in the prime of youth, is indeed terrible. The first approach of consumption is insidious, and the sufferer himself is the most uncon-- scious of its approach. One of the most alarming symptoms of this dread disease is, in fact, the ineradicable hope, which turks in the heart of the victim, preventing him from taking timely steps to arrest the malady. That it can be arrested in its earlier stages is beyond question, as there are hundreds of well-authenticated cases where Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical DlscoV- cry has effected a complete cure.

Experts In H.nawrisins.

l showed q letter one day TO iady
who " as thought 20 be great authority
on sucb matters. She loaded the hand
writing with every species of abuse. 1t
was the writing OF q bad-tempered man,
of a stupid man, of an ignorant man;
there could be no relieving feature what
ever in such handwriting as that. "And
now. Madam" said Twill you look at
the signature" 1t was the signature OF
Macauley. So if you wish to obtain an
opinion worth having, respecting the
owership of handwriting, it is far best
for you to obtain skilled opinion. You
are not oblige to believe the expert any
more than it you are upon jury, and
it becomes peculiarly difficult to believe
when two experts are swearing hard
against oas another. Nevertheless, If
the opinion of an expert will not help
you, there is no opinion on which you
can safely go. A very remarkable case
of Identification OF hand writing came
to my knowledge some time ago. a
gentleman had offered very large sum
of money for the discovery of marriage
register, the production of which was
highly necessary in a heavy litigation.
A clergyman from the country wrote to
say that the missing register had turned
up in the vestry box of his own parish.
A solicitor and a well-known expert
were sent down to examine the docu-
ment. The clergyman showed them
the marriage register, aud after a PRO-
tracted examination they all went to
lunch. Then an opinion decidedly un-
favorable to the genuineness of the doc
ument was delivered by the expert in
handwriting. It was quite modern
handwriting and did not possess the
comparative antiquity claimed for it.
Then how in the world did it get
there." asked the Vicar. The expert
had diligently examined the Wears
handwriting in his note. and said quietly,
"Why You forged it yourself" The
unhappy parson, being threatened with
highly penal consequences, fed the
country. l am sorry to say anything
against the cloth, but many of my read
ers will recognize this as q true story.
The moral is that if it is necessary to
trace and expose an anonymous COM
municstion, you had better use the best
availabls means for doing so.-[LOndon
